Abstract: A test structure for measuring static noise margin (SNM) for one or more static random access memory (SRAM) cells can include a first transistor gate (TG) and a second TG electrically coupled to each SRAM cell. In an implementation, an interconnect between an output of a first inverter and an input of a second inverter of the SRAM cell can be electrically disconnected using a cut off. During operation of the SRAM cell, internal storage nodes within the SRAM cell can be electrically coupled through the first TG and the second TG to, for example, external pins and to a test fixture. Electrical parameters such as voltage can be measured at the internal storage nodes through the external pins and used to calculate SNM of the SRAM cell.
